Ritani, the fine jewelry brand known for its classic-feeling engagement rings, has debuted a new capsule collection created in collaboration with fashion jewelry brand Lili Claspe.
Lili Claspe x Ritani, a fine fashion jewelry collection that recently launched on Ritani.com, is composed of 23 modern-feeling designs that pair 14k yellow gold with colorless diamonds.
The very wearable collection employs a few prominent design elements, including a fringe effect courtesy of draped round-cut diamonds and a simple bar shape. Several earrings, rings, and pendants feature a delicate open circle anchored to a short bar, which is often studded with diamonds.
Baguette-cut diamonds also figure prominently in the collection: The 14k yellow gold Peak ring features a row of baguettes that come to a point on top, while the Baguette Disc pendant boasts a trio of baguette-cut diamonds jutting boldly from a 14k gold round disk.

Stephanie Tchamanian, designer and founder of Lili Claspe, told JCK, “I wanted the Lili Claspe x Ritani collection to be very feminine and easy to wear,” adding, “there is a consistent design throughout all of the pieces in this collection, which allows them to be worn together, stacked, or as a stand-alone bold statement…it’s the most versatile collection I’ve ever designed!”
Tchamanian launched Lili Claspe, a fashion jewelry collection she named for her late sister, Lisa (who, growing up, she lovingly called “Lili”), in 2011.
The collaboration with Ritani marks the designer’s first official foray into fine jewelry: “It’s been a dream of mine to launch a fine jewelry line,” Tchamanian says, “and Ritani has made that dream come true with this collaboration.”
The designer cited Ritani’s built-in infrastructure, retail platform, and “dedication to craftsmanship” as helping bring the collaboration to life.
Ria Papasifakis, director of merchandising at Ritani, said in a prepared statement, “We are thrilled to launch the Lili Claspe x Ritani collection. Stephanie’s pieces are not only beautiful—they come from her heart. At Ritani we take pride in every handcrafted piece we make, so it made sense for us to find a partner with the same philosophy. Stephanie’s pieces resonate with women all over the world, and her attention to detail and passion for her work are evident in every piece.”
The Lili Claspe x Ritani collection is currently available on Ritani.com, with prices ranging from $465 for a 14k gold diamond-studded bar pendant to $2,595 for a 14k gold ring wreathed in baguette-cut diamonds.
